## Description

The 1800MEDICARE app (formerly my health gov) provides secure, mobile access to your My Health Record, including health information, electronic prescriptions, and the ability to find and book health services. It’s fast, private, and convenient, placing your important health data in the palm of your hand. This app is a first step toward easier access to health services for all Australians.

Recent updates improve privacy and access controls that sync with My Health Record. In-app notifications for preventive screenings and reports will be added over time. To get started, you’ll need a myGov account linked to your My Health Record.
